I think this is one of those sketches that really shows French & Saunders at their best. The level of attention to detail in the parody, particularly by Jennifer Saunders, is excellent.

'She gets mud all over her shoulder'. Lol! Fact: I didn't know those shoes were calle mules until I saw this sketch back in the 90s. Lol. See: they're educational as well as funny.

@philbyification So do I. I laughed so much when Hyacinth organized a riverside picnic with riparian entertainments for herself, Richard, Elizabeth, Emmet, the vicar and his his wife, and her sister Violet, but things to not go according to plan as they sail down the river in rowing boats and a huge overhead digger drenches Hyachinth and Richard, then as they sail past the river Hyacinth is further disgruntled to see Daisy, Rose, Onslow, Violet and Daddy having a picnic.
